Magnetic Field Simulation
1. Problem Description
For example: There is a copper wire coil (constant 100A), and a core and armature made of steel_1008 material. Model dimensions: the coil has an outer diameter of 16mm, an inner diameter of 13mm, and a length of 40mm; the core has a total height of 60mm, a total length of 100mm, and a cross-sectional area of 15*20mm; the armature dimensions are 120*40*10mm. The task is to calculate the electromagnetic force acting on the armature.
